No saved person will take the mark.
While the flesh is weak, the Holy Spirit that indwells every believer will over ride the flesh at this time.
Salvation has always been by faith alone and always will be.
No saved person will take the mark.
While the flesh is weak, the Holy Spirit that indwells every believer will over ride the flesh at this time.
Salvation has always been by faith alone and always will be.
Everybody from year 70-90 when the book of revelation was written have been able to take the mark. Its a spiritual mark that allows the servants of Yahooah (God) to differentiate between believers and non-believers or the righteous and the wicked.
Matthew 13 clearly teaches that there are only 2 groups of humans on earth, and that Yahoosha (Jesus) will return to save the righteous and destroy the wicked, at THE LAST DAY. The wicked include all people from all nations who refuse to humble themselves and obey the Creators Law, more commonly known as the 10 commandments.
The beast system described in biblical prophecy is ANY & ALL political systems whereby the inhabitants of the earth are deceived to believe anything other than Yahooahs Word as truth. All deception is simply a variation of the original deception which led to sin in eden when eve was deceived by satan whilst adam believed eve.
The last greatest deception perpetrated upon humanity is to have a world politcal system which puposely ignores the Creators instructions regarding His Holy Days. Instead we have a worldwide politcal system which has embraced the reincarnated julian calendar which is more commonly known as the gregorian calendar. This image of the beast speaks to all followers worldwide telling them when to work, rest, and worship, thus defying the Law of Yahooah. Its order and names of months, order of weeks and names of days defies all of Yahooahs clear instructions for time keeping. Even the jews allowed their calendar system to be changed back inthe 4th century under leadership of hillel II, so that the only evidence of the creators calendar remains in His Word as revealed through the Holy Scriptures.
The current gregorian calendar is filled with tributes to pagan gods as months and days bear their names. Remember what Joshua said in 23:7 Do not associate with these nations that remain among you; DO NOT INVOKE THE NAMES OF THEIR gods or swear by them. You must not serve them or bow down to them. Exodus 23:13 "Be careful to do everything I have said to you.DO NOT INVOKE THE NAMES OF OTHER gods; do not let them be HEARD FROM YOUR LIPS.
So the deception already exists in the very names, but not only have the names been changed, but the days have also been manipulated so that its impossible to say that saturday is the sabbath or friday or sunday - its both all of these days and yet none! Look closely at the warnign given in Revelation 13:16 It also CAUSES all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they SHOULD NOT BE ABLE to BUY or SELL unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
When shouldn't believers be able to BUY or SELL?
Neh 10:31 "When the neighboring peoples bring merchandise or grain to SELL on the Sabbath, we will not BUY from them on the Sabbath or on ANY HOLY DAY. Every seventh year we will forgo working the land and will cancel all debts.
Nehemiah 13:15 In those days I saw people in Judah treading winepresses on the Sabbath and bringing in grain and loading it on donkeys, together with wine, grapes, figs and all other kinds of loads. And they were bringing all this into Jerusalem on the Sabbath. Therefore I warned them against SELLING food on that day. 16 Also men of Tyre were living there who imported fish and all kinds of merchandise, and SOLD them to the sons of Judah on the SABBATH, even in Jerusalem.… 17 Then I reprimanded the nobles of Judah and said to them, "What is this evil thing you are doing, by PROFANING THE SABBATH DAY?…
People who profane the Sabbath or any Holy Day by BUYING & SELLING are breaking Gods 4th Commandment to humanity of observing His Sabbaths and keeping them Holy. Thus anyone who disobeys the Word of the living God receives the mark of the beast, as the Holy Spirit is withdrawn from their lives. Those who remain faithful to the teaching of Christ and believe in Him will continue to remain sealed as promised in Eph 1:13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit. Now compare this with Rev 14:12 This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of God who keep His commands and remain faithful to Christ.
How do we avoid receiving the mark of the beast? By remaining obedient to our Creator who says this in Eze 46:1 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: The gate of the inner court facing east is to be shut on the six working days, but on the Sabbath day and on the day of the New Moon it is to be opened. 3 On the Sabbaths and New Moons the people of the land are to worship in the presence of the Lord at the entrance of that gateway.
We are to worhsip our Creator on His New Moon & Sabbath Days in accordance with His calendar which He established at creation in Gen 1:14 And Yahooah said, "Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years. Why can;t the gregorian calendar be the right calendar system? Because New Moon Days can fall on working days or Sabbath Days, but Ezekiel 46 says that they are separate days.
Did Yahoosha confirm this Law during His time on earth? Yes, despite healing several people on the Holy Days, Yahoosha was adamant that believers were not permitted to BUY or SELL as shown in Matthew 21:12 Yahoosha entered the temple courts and drove out all who were BUYING and SELLING there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves.
People were only allowed into the temple to worhsip on Yahooahs Holy Days, and they were not permitted to BUY & SELL on His Holy Days. John describes this in better detail:- John 2:13 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Yahoosha went up to Jerusalem. 14 In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. 15 So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. 16 To those who sold doves he said, "Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father's house into a market!"
Yahoosha took the time to make a whip of cords and then to drive out all who were BUYING & SELLING in the temple on His Holy Day, was a clear warning to all believers who would come to the ONE FAITH in the ONE LORD thereafter. Even after Yahoosha death, scripture records the apostles and disciples continuing to observe Yahooahs Lev 23 Holy Days as a sign of respect for their Creator.
The prophet Hosea describes our current pitiful situation the best when he penned:- Hos 4:6 My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. "Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; BECAUSE YOU HAVE IGNORED THE LAW OF YAHOOAH, I also will ignore your children.
They did use the Luni-Sun Callendar in those days and whitout it you cant find the true sabbath!
